“IBM has articulated that real value is shifting. As much as Intel® would have us believe that we need the absolute latest processor to have a worthwhile system, in reality it is integrated, optimized systems that matter— and processors are just one component in that system.”

— Joyce Tompsett Becknell, The Sageza Group, IBM Does Open Source for Microprocessors, April 2, 2004

IBM advanced virtualization technologies for infrastructure simplification are designed to address this IT challenge.

Today’s UNIX and Linux servers are relatively inefficient

“Enterprises should change their thinking about consolidation and pursue a server virtualization strategy rather than a server consolidation project.

Server virtualization technologies pool and connect server resources in a way that masks the physical nature and boundaries of those resources from resource users.”

— T. Bittman, Gartner Research Note, SP-21-550214 November 2003.

IBM virtualization technologies are designed to provide more business value than server consolidation alone
